Personally I think his older stuff was better and way funnier then his new stuff. Like this video, death race 3, after earth and the host were all top notch. Now? Just not as good.
In Sixth Sense, Bruce Willis' character discovers that he's dead and the gunshot wound appears on his shirt. I think when the people discover that they are actually dead, they change into how they were the moment they died; hence the 3 hanging people.
People are saying that Devil wasn't "that bad"? Did they not see the scene where the guy explains that when the Devil is near, toast falls jelly side down?
*J E L L Y S I D E D O W N* Also, it would have been a much better twist if the mexican was the devil all along, then that would mean that he was just having a blast, trolling the guys around him while being the master in the shadows
Yeah, that was a pretty weird way to show the devil being nearby. When I first heard that in the film, I though "So what happens if it lands jelly side up? Does it prove that Jesus was nearby?"
The ghosts in the sixth sense aren't just people who have died, they're people who can't yet move on to the afterlife due to specific circumstances (mostly regrets) surrounding their death. So that means not everyone who dies becomes a ghost, and those that do become ghosts don't stay ghosts forever before passing on (meaning at some point there's an eventual drop-off rate of 1800's, 1600's, 1200's or even Neanderthal ghosts still being around). It also that means no animal ghosts because they can't conceive of things like "regret" to want to stay behind.

....that's not what he was complaining about, pay attention. He was saying that it didn't make any sense that a serial killer would invade a home, murder the dad, and tie up the rest of the family RIGHT BEFORE HE HAS TO GO TO WORK. I'm sure even Dahmer was intelligent and sane enough to not kill people immediately before he had to go to his dayjob. Or at least have the sense to call out of work if he did.
Assuming they were taken to his own house which they were not. So just maybe he researches his victims to know that not one soul would show up to the house of the people that were kidnapped huh.. Or are there really that goddamn stupid enough people out there who would break in someones home, tie em up, and go to work without thinking someone just might show up?? If so then wow how retarded are them people and will 100% get caught sooner than later!!!

I love the part in unbreakable when they imply that water is his weakness and drowning is like his kryptonite. I mean, isn´t drowning like the kryptonite of every being that fucking breathes?
5 years late but if you told me that I was completely invincible and could do whatever I wanted without dying as long as I didn't go near water, I'd get the fuck away from water. Kryptonite is a metaphor for when its like, only one single weakness. Drowning kills lots of people, but so does lots of other things, so its not really humanity's kryptonite.
Babs Seed I was his fan when Cody was his cameraman, after Cody left, The Amazing Atheist became more political and every second video of his was about feminists.
I initially didn't mind the feminism videos; he started out criticizing extremists. Now he's acting like sexism in America doesn't even exist. It was around the Laci Green segment from DP that I realized "Ok, this isn't an ideological difference anymore; he's just flushed his brain down the toilet" I mean when you spend half your video laughing at the funny faces someone makes if you randomly pause the clip, maybe it's time to consider that your problems with that person stem less from that person's positions or arguing tactics and more with some ancient personal beef you refuse to get over and maybe mocking someone who is generally being reasonable and making points you agree with causes you to look really desperate when you have to mine trivial things for material? But iz funny when Tim the Bartender did it so I'll do it in all my vids now.
I miss these type of reviews soooooo badly. Okay know he’s busy but this, the Saw reviews, the walking dead reviews, and his review of that weird straight to dvd horror movie with a clown on the cover were great. I love when Adams commentary makes the film far more entertaining than it was.
I'm with you on this. I had to stop being a patron on patreon because he wasn't producing content that motivated me to support him in the 1st place anymore. I sent him an email stating this but he never got back to me.
Somebody I can relate too. I've been a fan now for over a decade. I believe in the statement "Quality over Quantity"... for the most part. His Kimba the White Lion tear down was awesome and necessary and redefined a cultural belief. But how long has he been working on the Lion King 2019 review. I miss these old videos, at some point we need a little quantity over quality.
So at the point in the video where you're done talking about Shyamalan's good movies and you bring up Signs, you're suddenly replaced by the Amazing Atheist. Was that an intentional metaphor for Shyamalan's descent into egomania and shittiness?
"you're suddenly replaced by the Amazing Atheist. Was that an intentional metaphor for Shyamalan's descent into egomania and shittiness?" No, if he intended that, he would have used YOUR avatar.
Of all of your videos THIS 4 part series takes the cake. Seriously man, thanks for making these videos. They are really entertaining and always make me laugh.
He was killed for making _Paths of Glory_ and _Full Metal Jacket._ NATO didn't appreciate having the greatest filmmaker of all time making not one, but *two* anti-war protest movies.
Unbreakable actually makes me cry from the Father/Son scene at the end. So much is said without anything being spoken. I love it. now THAT's masterful scene writing when you don't need any dialogue at all to convey what's being "spoken". I personally put Unbreakable as his best one, because it DID move me emotionally. ALso Signs was great.
WTF? Jackie Brown is my favorite Tarantino movie and Eyes Wide Shut is a fucking masterpiece. Then again... I did actually like Signs so perhaps I just proved my own point...
Sorry, but as a child I was watching it, and waiting, waaaiting for the big reveal without any, huh, preconception about directors and actors and the what not, but in the moment they said it was water, I felt for the first time of my life I had terribly waisted my time
Jackie Brown is alright, most Tarantino movies are better though. Eyes Wide Shut is great but to call it a masterpiece is overpraising it. It doesn't compare to other Kubrick films like Dr. Strangelove, 2001, A Clockwork Orange or The Shining, which you can certainly argue to be masterpieces. So yeah, with Signs, maybe you did prove your own point!
Fat6amer you're right it wasn't bad it was awful aliens who master space travel who are trying to conquer a planet don't bring any weapons they can't open wooden doors and let's not forget aliens who a killed by water attack a planet MOSTLY COVERED IN FUCKING WATER
"Some teen bolted across traffic to tell me how good my movie was." Yea...if somebody bolted across traffic at him today he'd be running FOR HIS LIFE! LOL!
It doesn't seem that odd for me for a killer/kidnapper to go back to his ordinary life during/after the deed, in fact, it happens a lot. Just the other day I was reading of a guy who killed his wife and daughter then went off to play ping pong with his friends that very night. According to the friends the guy was perfectly normal and didn't act any different around them despite what he just did. You can't really argue normality with those kinds of people, I think I can believe how crazy/stupid their actions would be.
It's not just conquering a lava planet, but also conquering the native lava people for the sole reason of then eating those lava people. Because that'll go well.
I think that "Jackie Brown" was actually one of Tarantinos best. It was actually a real drama. I love Tarantino, but he usually makes Comic-Book Movies. JB was actually much more challenging to make than anything else he made.
andre p huh. i'll agree Jackie Brown was more difficult to make because of the different viewpoints shown (especially at the end), but it wasnt as entertaining. just not what i see a Tarantino movie for, you know?
I honestly believe, and I believe this honestly, that M Night is genuinely the greatest troll in history and none of us are in on it. There is no way he does shit like have "What Psycho did for showers and Jaws did for oceans, The Visit will do for grandparents" without some serious self awareness. Beyond that, what he did for The Last Airbender? He knew it was his biggest trolling opportunity. He is a genius, I just know it.
honestly, its plausible. i can totally see this being the case with how down to earth and humble he is in all his interviews, he does seem very self aware
Van Hammersly I love how it is so unlike Tarantino's other films. While I love how shameless the gore and violence is in _Django: Unchained_ and _Ingourious Basterds_, I prefer the more understated stories. Unfortunately, _Jackie Brown_ won't be a classic like _Pulp Fiction_ but, IMO, they are on the same level.
Carl Siemens it lacks that normal ultra violent aspect because it's originally a novel and he didn't write it, just translated it for the screen. There is still some violence in it, and he did do his fair share of artistic liberties and changed a lot of it, but kept the main points.
i love the fact that your idea became 4 videos like how war & peace wanted to tell one story, but felt the need to explain all prerequisites & bkg info. yes, these videos are "the War & Peace" of youtube videos.
The thing people should pay attention to about Shyamalan's two first movies is the people (person actually) who are in the movie other than the director. An actor can change a movie or even have more power than the director in some cases. The actor I am talking about is Bruce Willis. If you have ever watched the later "An Evening with Kevin Smith" movies and listen to Kevin Smith's impression of Bruce Willis or even listen to the interviews of people who worked with Bruce Willis, it becomes obvious that Bruce Willis is a very controlling person. Directors don't like working with the guy because of how bossy he is. So this is basically the story of M. Night Shyamalan. First, he was working under the controlled environment of Bruce Willis for two movies. People, loving these two movies, noticed the similarity between these two movies was the director (and not anybody else.) Hollywood assumed the same and gave Shyamalan everything he needed to make more awesome movies and finally Shyamalan broke free from Bruce Willis' grip. I think we know what happened after. I can't imagine another reason why he was good and then bad. I think it's interesting, imagine if Bruce Willis actually tried to make a movie.
That would explain a hell of a lot. Bruce having been in great movies before (Die Hard, Pulp Fiction) and being a great actor himself probably knows a lot more about what works and what doesn't than M Night. I wouldn't be surprised if he rewrote half of the script. Harrison Ford was responsible for the ""I love you" I know"" scene in Empire. They were just gonna have him say "I love you too" or something stupid like that. So I could imagine Bruce Willis probably changed up a lot of stupid hackneyed dialogue that M Night is so good at writing.
***** Not only that. Most movies that he made that people shit on aren't nearly as bad as people make them out to be. Most of them are actually good IMO. The only truly irredeemable Shyamalan movie is The Last Airbender. To me, it's the only movie that matches that hyperbolic Shyamalan hate.
In ghost lore, the only persons who become ghosts either died traumatically, or with unfinished business, or were so clueless they didn't realize they were dead. Still, that should lead to more ghosts than were encountered in the movie, especially in a place that's been inhabited for quite awhile. Yes, there have been ghost animals in stories. In one of my favorite ghost stories, AMMIE, COME HOME by Barbara Michaels, the ghosts have different reasons for coming back.
i havent seen split but i watched glass before split and i can honestly say it was a bad idea because if sequel is bad how tf am i gonna be motivated to watch the first movie
Griffin Johnson Yes, but he said he had very little good to say about this movie. We all know that an 8/10 especially from Adam isn't a low score. I wouldn't even consider a 7/10 to be a low score for Adam.
Jak Mar I know. 8/10 is not at all his actual score. His review and the 8/10 are unrelated. He wanted it to go down one at a time. He thought them going down would be funny.
It's so weird to see that whole segment on the guy who tied the people up. Like, by that time, Natascha Kampusch had escaped 5 years ago, and released her book not too long before that movie came out. On her Wikipedia page it's detailed that her captor kept her inside of a small room most of the time, although he later allowed her to move freely in the house by day when he was there. And yeah, he literally just went to work every day with a captive child and later teenager in his cellar. She wasn't even tied up in there. It's not necessary to suspend your disbelief very much to think that people can do that kind of thing. Especially considering that those people likely went missing, someone likely reported that (or might have), and some guy who lives in their general area not coming into work the next few days would have been highly suspicious. And generally, whenever you see "smaller" criminals in movies, their actions are probably more realistic than you think especially when they seem stupid. Because few people actually go into crime with a solid plan after meticulously studying how to do it best. Most of them plan it on short notice, make rookie mistakes because they don't know about them, or give in to urges that they didn't plan on following until the opportunity arises. That's like the only thing I keep finding myself sighing up in these otherwise great reviews.
_Lady in the Water_ is my guilty pleasure. It's one of those movies I enjoy watching on a rainy weekend afternoon. I'll make a big mug of coffee, fill the couch with blankets, and just curl up for some carefree entertainment. I know it got a lot of flack in the media back then, so I put off watching it until I stumbled across it on TV. Sat down and didn't get up until the credit roll was done. I wouldn't call it my favorite movie, but it's definitely a nice movie, much the same way _Stardust_ was a nice movie. It makes you feel both a little sad and a little happy at the same time, and the story is an adventure.
YMS's opinions of these films summarized in single words; The Sixth Sense: Wow! Unbreakable: Alright! Signs: Huh. The Village: Wait... Lady In The Water: Really!? The Happening: WHAT!? The Last Airbender: *WTF!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!*
Woah, you forgot to mention that, in Unbreakable, Bruce Willis had all his powers for what I guess was his entire life but was somehow unaware of his super strength and psychic abilities. And I always wondered what the Signs aliens would do during a a light rain.
AA makes valid points in that clip but God is he grating to listen to. I remember finding him unpleasant and annoying back in the day for much the same reason I couldn't stand Doug Walker, namely because he feels the need to CONSTANTLY YELL in his videos. I detest that old style of internet reviewing where the reviewers in question would just scream swear words into a shitty camcorder mic. It was an attempt to imitate AVGN's style while forgetting that the Nerd didn't scream all his lines (he also moved around a lot more instead of gormlessly sitting in front of a wall like Doug). The forced, over-the-top outrage always came cross to me as infantile and moronic. I mean, for God's sake, it's just a movie. I never got why AA and Walker got so worked up over dumb/bad creative decisions in the media they reviewed. It just seems so unnecessary.
First, no movie is perfect... Anyways, my real point, I think the reason M. Night kinda dropped the soap is because, he was hoisted up as the next god of film way too early.
With the Sixth Sense, I thought the ghosts you see are people who have unfinished business... Like the little girl who needed the video tape to be seen by her family before she could be at peace. Maybe the hanging victims were wrongly accused and are just stuck there now. That's why I didn't think the streets would be full of dead people, just the ones who needed to do something.
So much hostility towards TJ in the comments. It's funny, because all of the complaints I ever hear about The Amazing Atheist is the misinformation that has been spread about him over the years. I still watch his stuff, doesn't mean I necessarily agree with everything he says but I still find him entertaining and engaging to listen to.
+Brad Laws All anyone wants to say about him is "He's not a feminist, he once was mean to a rape victim, he isn't an anarchist, and he says bad words."
I think telling a rape victim that he hopes they are raped again is much more than being mean to a rape victim. He's an obnoxious idiot. He's honestly one of the worst spoken prominent figures in the Atheist community. He appeals to 14 year olds, and frankly. I don't understand how anyone can respect how TJ acts, atheist or not.
+iMonikah u do realise that that was after a massive trolling hate campaign against him and he basically lost his cool and now it's been immortalised because it was written when had it been in real life no one would remembered cos it would be have just been a 'said it in the moment' type of thing. what he said isn't condonable but it's understandable
iMonikah You're right I undersold it. I just think it's weird that it's still brought up as an argument years later when he's apologized several times for it. What is even more bothersome for me is how context is rarely given for the event.
"Every director has a movie that's not as good as the other ones, maybe their next one will be better" *Show's Kubrick's last movie before he died* That gave me a chuckle!
3:20 _Does that mean that there are, like, ghost ropes, and, like, ghost clothes?_ - Not to mention that they are hanging in a facility that was clearly built centuries after their death.
Danny Liken I think Jackie Brown is a masterpiece and is the only Tarantino film that reaches my top 10 favourite films of all time (6th Favourite Film of all time to be specific). Pulp Fiction comes second in my Tarantino ranking and 13th favourite film of all time. I too used to think Jackie Brown to be the worst until I realised that the reason that it is supposed to be so slow paced is because it is structured like a beautiful slow burn of dynamite which slowly builds up to an explosive climax. I dislike Pulp Fiction's non linear narrative that at times I feel disjoints me from the experience - especially after so many watches. However I do realise that it is all down to personal enjoyment and the positives of pulp fiction definitely outweigh the negatives. Pulp fiction is so iconic and I find it a shame that Jackie Brown is not but when it comes down to it for me, I think the story, structure, acting and direction of Jackie Brown is better. However I can definitely say that the dialogue in Pulp Fiction is tighter, more iconic and generally better than that of Jackie Brown as is the soundtrack.

The ghosts in the sixth sense aren't just people who have died, they're people who can't yet move on to the afterlife due to specific circumstances (mostly regrets) surrounding their death.

Humans are the only species making it a big deal and a fool out of themselves.

Serial killers often live double lives. Dahmer kept his day job, so the janitor in Unbreakable being at work is legit, dare I say, well written.
my thoughts exactly, that part actually jibes with reality as hard as it is for non-crazy people to comprehend it.
If the killer was that crazy Bruce probably should have just called the cops so he could get help. It's a little like he strangled a developmentally disabled person.

Actually yeah, that's kind of how society works. If you don't realize the bad things you're doing then the deterrence element of the punishment is pointless, they also can't consider the implications of why the punishment came down on them, etc. The guy probably should have just gone to a psyche ward for the rest of his life.

I think I can argue the whole animal aspect that you mentioned. If you're going by Christian beliefs which I'm assuming the sixth sense is using, animals do not have souls only humans. As such if an animal dies and since it has no soul it cannot have a ghost.
So at what evolutionary stage in our history did we develop a 'soul'? Did it just pop in the very instant a newborn could be classified as homo sapien? Why did their parents with nearly identical genetic makeup not have a soul?
YMS I think you're forgetting the fact that when the bible was written evolution was not a concept of the world.

Those last two "directors' black sheep movies" are extremely debatable.

Babs Seed I was his fan when Cody was his cameraman, after Cody left, The Amazing Atheist became more political and every second video of his was about feminists.
***** check out dp it's better than the old shit real chill
Dakota Weigel I "checked" out DP, I really don't like it.
He seems so slow now, but he was really quick witted back then.
***** fair enough.
I initially didn't mind the feminism videos; he started out criticizing extremists. Now he's acting like sexism in America doesn't even exist. It was around the Laci Green segment from DP that I realized "Ok, this isn't an ideological difference anymore; he's just flushed his brain down the toilet" I mean when you spend half your video laughing at the funny faces someone makes if you randomly pause the clip, maybe it's time to consider that your problems with that person stem less from that person's positions or arguing tactics and more with some ancient personal beef you refuse to get over and maybe mocking someone who is generally being reasonable and making points you agree with causes you to look really desperate when you have to mine trivial things for material? But iz funny when Tim the Bartender did it so I'll do it in all my vids now.
I miss these type of reviews soooooo badly. Okay know he’s busy but this, the Saw reviews, the walking dead reviews, and his review of that weird straight to dvd horror movie with a clown on the cover were great. I love when Adams commentary makes the film far more entertaining than it was.
I'm with you on this. I had to stop being a patron on patreon because he wasn't producing content that motivated me to support him in the 1st place anymore. I sent him an email stating this but he never got back to me.
Somebody I can relate too. I've been a fan now for over a decade. I believe in the statement "Quality over Quantity"... for the most part. His Kimba the White Lion tear down was awesome and necessary and redefined a cultural belief. But how long has he been working on the Lion King 2019 review. I miss these old videos, at some point we need a little quantity over quality.
@@yuikol14 what?
So at the point in the video where you're done talking about Shyamalan's good movies and you bring up Signs, you're suddenly replaced by the Amazing Atheist. Was that an intentional metaphor for Shyamalan's descent into egomania and shittiness?
"you're suddenly replaced by the Amazing Atheist. Was that an intentional metaphor for Shyamalan's descent into egomania and shittiness?"
No, if he intended that, he would have used YOUR avatar.

Of all of your videos THIS 4 part series takes the cake. Seriously man, thanks for making these videos. They are really entertaining and always make me laugh.
Hey, Eyes Wide Shut is really good. It's one of Kubrick's most underrated films.
KissMyAsthma well it takes some thinking at face value it's pretty weird
it is, but as he said it's not as good as the other ones
Underground Chamber Muzik what
He was killed for making _Paths of Glory_ and _Full Metal Jacket._ NATO didn't appreciate having the greatest filmmaker of all time making not one, but *two* anti-war protest movies.
@Underground Chamber Muzik dying at 70 from a heart attack seems pretty believable to me lol
Unbreakable actually makes me cry from the Father/Son scene at the end. So much is said without anything being spoken. I love it. now THAT's masterful scene writing when you don't need any dialogue at all to convey what's being "spoken". I personally put Unbreakable as his best one, because it DID move me emotionally. ALso Signs was great.
WTF? Jackie Brown is my favorite Tarantino movie and Eyes Wide Shut is a fucking masterpiece. Then again... I did actually like Signs so perhaps I just proved my own point...
Signs wasn't BAD; It just wasn't as good as Unbreakable and Sixth Sense.
Sorry, but as a child I was watching it, and waiting, waaaiting for the big reveal without any, huh, preconception about directors and actors and the what not, but in the moment they said it was water, I felt for the first time of my life I had terribly waisted my time
Jackie Brown is alright, most Tarantino movies are better though. Eyes Wide Shut is great but to call it a masterpiece is overpraising it. It doesn't compare to other Kubrick films like Dr. Strangelove, 2001, A Clockwork Orange or The Shining, which you can certainly argue to be masterpieces. So yeah, with Signs, maybe you did prove your own point!
Fat6amer you're right it wasn't bad it was awful aliens who master space travel who are trying to conquer a planet don't bring any weapons they can't open wooden doors and let's not forget aliens who a killed by water attack a planet MOSTLY COVERED IN FUCKING WATER
"Some teen bolted across traffic to tell me how good my movie was."
Yea...if somebody bolted across traffic at him today he'd be running FOR HIS LIFE! LOL!
Funny how no one's lining up to see his movies yet almost all of his movies have made profit beyond the margin
The piano/keyboard analogy to M.Night's career was gold. Lmao.
It doesn't seem that odd for me for a killer/kidnapper to go back to his ordinary life during/after the deed, in fact, it happens a lot.
Just the other day I was reading of a guy who killed his wife and daughter then went off to play ping pong with his friends that very night. According to the friends the guy was perfectly normal and didn't act any different around them despite what he just did. You can't really argue normality with those kinds of people, I think I can believe how crazy/stupid their actions would be.
Adam's videos age so damn well. This was made almost 10 years ago and its still not outdated at all. He spends a lot of time on videos, and it shows.
It's not just conquering a lava planet, but also conquering the native lava people for the sole reason of then eating those lava people. Because that'll go well.
EY. Don't talk shit on Jackie Brown....
1:56 - 'and although it does have it's flaws...' *cuts to M Night* - well played sir.
"And although the movie does have its FLAWS" *cuts to M. Night*
Good shit man
I love how Adam would put in "Pure Morning" by Placebo in the background of his videos sometimes
That piano segment is me in music class
0:47 Holy shit, M. Night Shyamalan predicted Star Wars 7!
+DovahSpy He's connected, yo. Probably had a taste of Bay's socks-made-of-silk money, too.
+DovahSpy 9 hasn't found a director yet.... Oh God no....
I think that "Jackie Brown" was actually one of Tarantinos best. It was actually a real drama. I love Tarantino, but he usually makes Comic-Book Movies. JB was actually much more challenging to make than anything else he made.
meh. jb definitely wasnt a bad movie , but tarantino shines in other films. like django unchained, pulp fiction etc.
True, but they were much easier to do!
andre p were they?
Yes, they were. They were a classic over the top genre mix.
andre p huh. i'll agree Jackie Brown was more difficult to make because of the different viewpoints shown (especially at the end), but it wasnt as entertaining. just not what i see a Tarantino movie for, you know?
I honestly believe, and I believe this honestly, that M Night is genuinely the greatest troll in history and none of us are in on it. There is no way he does shit like have "What Psycho did for showers and Jaws did for oceans, The Visit will do for grandparents" without some serious self awareness. Beyond that, what he did for The Last Airbender? He knew it was his biggest trolling opportunity. He is a genius, I just know it.
honestly, its plausible. i can totally see this being the case with how down to earth and humble he is in all his interviews, he does seem very self aware
I rewatch these videos every time M. Night releases a new movie.
Hey, _Jackie Brown_ is really good!
Agreed. My personal Tarantino favorite, but I do love all of them.
Jesse Curle
"Who's that?"
"Beaumont."
"Who's Beaumont?"
"My employee I had to let go."
ik i personally love eyes wide shut!
Van Hammersly
I love how it is so unlike Tarantino's other films. While I love how shameless the gore and violence is in _Django: Unchained_ and _Ingourious Basterds_, I prefer the more understated stories. Unfortunately, _Jackie Brown_ won't be a classic like _Pulp Fiction_ but, IMO, they are on the same level.
Carl Siemens it lacks that normal ultra violent aspect because it's originally a novel and he didn't write it, just translated it for the screen. There is still some violence in it, and he did do his fair share of artistic liberties and changed a lot of it, but kept the main points.
i love the fact that your idea became 4 videos like how war & peace wanted to tell one story, but felt the need to explain all prerequisites & bkg info.
yes, these videos are "the War & Peace" of youtube videos.
I like how you used Placebo’s “Pure Morning” in your soundtrack near the end there, good touch.
Woah woah woah!
Eyes Wide Shut is "not as good as the rest of them"? It's one of his best
Ehhhhh, it's pretty shit
HIS PERSONAL OPINION!!
God, I miss TJ. Seeing that clip makes me feel 15 again...
Is he the angry fat kid?
Is there a link to that full review?
The thing people should pay attention to about Shyamalan's two first movies is the people (person actually) who are in the movie other than the director. An actor can change a movie or even have more power than the director in some cases.
The actor I am talking about is Bruce Willis. If you have ever watched the later "An Evening with Kevin Smith" movies and listen to Kevin Smith's impression of Bruce Willis or even listen to the interviews of people who worked with Bruce Willis, it becomes obvious that Bruce Willis is a very controlling person. Directors don't like working with the guy because of how bossy he is.
So this is basically the story of M. Night Shyamalan. First, he was working under the controlled environment of Bruce Willis for two movies. People, loving these two movies, noticed the similarity between these two movies was the director (and not anybody else.) Hollywood assumed the same and gave Shyamalan everything he needed to make more awesome movies and finally Shyamalan broke free from Bruce Willis' grip. I think we know what happened after.
I can't imagine another reason why he was good and then bad. I think it's interesting, imagine if Bruce Willis actually tried to make a movie.
good point.
Yeah. Certain directors are best when they have someone keeping them in check.
That would explain a hell of a lot. Bruce having been in great movies before (Die Hard, Pulp Fiction) and being a great actor himself probably knows a lot more about what works and what doesn't than M Night. I wouldn't be surprised if he rewrote half of the script. Harrison Ford was responsible for the ""I love you" I know"" scene in Empire. They were just gonna have him say "I love you too" or something stupid like that. So I could imagine Bruce Willis probably changed up a lot of stupid hackneyed dialogue that M Night is so good at writing.
***** Not only that. Most movies that he made that people shit on aren't nearly as bad as people make them out to be. Most of them are actually good IMO. The only truly irredeemable Shyamalan movie is The Last Airbender. To me, it's the only movie that matches that hyperbolic Shyamalan hate.
gsonic55 George lucas for example too
I just like how near the end of the video, sudden TJ!
In ghost lore, the only persons who become ghosts either died traumatically, or with unfinished business, or were so clueless they didn't realize they were dead. Still, that should lead to more ghosts than were encountered in the movie, especially in a place that's been inhabited for quite awhile. Yes, there have been ghost animals in stories. In one of my favorite ghost stories, AMMIE, COME HOME by Barbara Michaels, the ghosts have different reasons for coming back.
Lol I'm from the future and M. Night Shyamalan actually makes a good movie called Split
im from the further future and he ruins both split AND unbreakable with Glass :\
I'm from the future and the madman himself has 2 upcoming films ready to go in the next couple of years despite all of that...
Emi Grant im from the future and his future movies will most likely be postponed due to coronavirus
i havent seen split but i watched glass before split and i can honestly say it was a bad idea because if sequel is bad how tf am i gonna be motivated to watch the first movie
@@kekw5153 I'm from the future and his reputation is pretty much unsalvageable.
You dislike Signs yet you gave it an 8/10 on IMBD. Did you have like a change of heart or something? I would probably give it a 7 to be honest.
***** I looked through all his ratings,because I don't have a life :P
Jak Mar I believe he said that he wanted it to get lower and lower so,
Sixth Sense = 10
Unbreakable = 9
Signs = 8
Etc. Etc.
Griffin Johnson Yes, but he said he had very little good to say about this movie. We all know that an 8/10 especially from Adam isn't a low score. I wouldn't even consider a 7/10 to be a low score for Adam.
Jak Mar I know. 8/10 is not at all his actual score. His review and the 8/10 are unrelated. He wanted it to go down one at a time. He thought them going down would be funny.
Jak Mar A 8/10 from Adam is like an 9-10/10 from any other gzy
I seriously despise The Amazing Atheist but TJ's rant about Signs was fucking hilarious. He should stick to reviewing bad movies.
Superman: "Hmmm, a planet made ENTIRELY of Kryptonite"? "I WILL conquer it"!
It's so weird to see that whole segment on the guy who tied the people up. Like, by that time, Natascha Kampusch had escaped 5 years ago, and released her book not too long before that movie came out. On her Wikipedia page it's detailed that her captor kept her inside of a small room most of the time, although he later allowed her to move freely in the house by day when he was there. And yeah, he literally just went to work every day with a captive child and later teenager in his cellar. She wasn't even tied up in there.
It's not necessary to suspend your disbelief very much to think that people can do that kind of thing. Especially considering that those people likely went missing, someone likely reported that (or might have), and some guy who lives in their general area not coming into work the next few days would have been highly suspicious.
And generally, whenever you see "smaller" criminals in movies, their actions are probably more realistic than you think especially when they seem stupid. Because few people actually go into crime with a solid plan after meticulously studying how to do it best. Most of them plan it on short notice, make rookie mistakes because they don't know about them, or give in to urges that they didn't plan on following until the opportunity arises. That's like the only thing I keep finding myself sighing up in these otherwise great reviews.
_Lady in the Water_ is my guilty pleasure. It's one of those movies I enjoy watching on a rainy weekend afternoon. I'll make a big mug of coffee, fill the couch with blankets, and just curl up for some carefree entertainment. I know it got a lot of flack in the media back then, so I put off watching it until I stumbled across it on TV. Sat down and didn't get up until the credit roll was done. I wouldn't call it my favorite movie, but it's definitely a nice movie, much the same way _Stardust_ was a nice movie. It makes you feel both a little sad and a little happy at the same time, and the story is an adventure.
I love Lady in the Water!
In my senior year we had to watch the village in class and write an essay comparing it to Ayn Rand's Anthem. I think that speaks for itself.
Jackie Brown is arguably better than the rest of QT's films. Different isn't worse.
YMS's opinions of these films summarized in single words;
The Sixth Sense: Wow!
Unbreakable: Alright!
Signs: Huh.
The Village: Wait...
Lady In The Water: Really!?
The Happening: WHAT!?
The Last Airbender: *WTF!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!*
Jesus Christ, the audio lmao. He's come so far
It just makes me laugh so much listening to the big guy without context.
“I could get past that fucking door and kill that family if I wanted to”
7:05 Eyes Wide Shut is his best tho...
Watching his older videos in the context of watching his newer ones, Fuck, Adum sounded so bored back then!
this is so good to come back to.
thanks for the great video.
Woah, you forgot to mention that, in Unbreakable, Bruce Willis had all his powers for what I guess was his entire life but was somehow unaware of his super strength and psychic abilities. And I always wondered what the Signs aliens would do during a a light rain.
got an ad for split at the start of the video
2:23 What the hell? I've heard of stormfags but stormfurfags?
AA makes valid points in that clip but God is he grating to listen to. I remember finding him unpleasant and annoying back in the day for much the same reason I couldn't stand Doug Walker, namely because he feels the need to CONSTANTLY YELL in his videos. I detest that old style of internet reviewing where the reviewers in question would just scream swear words into a shitty camcorder mic. It was an attempt to imitate AVGN's style while forgetting that the Nerd didn't scream all his lines (he also moved around a lot more instead of gormlessly sitting in front of a wall like Doug). The forced, over-the-top outrage always came cross to me as infantile and moronic. I mean, for God's sake, it's just a movie. I never got why AA and Walker got so worked up over dumb/bad creative decisions in the media they reviewed. It just seems so unnecessary.
That dude getting all excited at the end is hilarious!
I’m glad I’m recommended this in 2020
wow...right now im watching a video from 2010
First, no movie is perfect...
Anyways, my real point, I think the reason M. Night kinda dropped the soap is because, he was hoisted up as the next god of film way too early.
With the Sixth Sense, I thought the ghosts you see are people who have unfinished business... Like the little girl who needed the video tape to be seen by her family before she could be at peace. Maybe the hanging victims were wrongly accused and are just stuck there now. That's why I didn't think the streets would be full of dead people, just the ones who needed to do something.
pre-kermit the frog voice era. remember when you were a real boy, Adam?
Watching this while waiting for old to start
i dont remember commenting this but Old is still my least favorite movie of all time.
So much hostility towards TJ in the comments. It's funny, because all of the complaints I ever hear about The Amazing Atheist is the misinformation that has been spread about him over the years. I still watch his stuff, doesn't mean I necessarily agree with everything he says but I still find him entertaining and engaging to listen to.
+Brad Laws All anyone wants to say about him is "He's not a feminist, he once was mean to a rape victim, he isn't an anarchist, and he says bad words."
I think telling a rape victim that he hopes they are raped again is much more than being mean to a rape victim.
He's an obnoxious idiot. He's honestly one of the worst spoken prominent figures in the Atheist community. He appeals to 14 year olds, and frankly. I don't understand how anyone can respect how TJ acts, atheist or not.
+iMonikah u do realise that that was after a massive trolling hate campaign against him and he basically lost his cool and now it's been immortalised because it was written when had it been in real life no one would remembered cos it would be have just been a 'said it in the moment' type of thing. what he said isn't condonable but it's understandable
iMonikah You're right I undersold it. I just think it's weird that it's still brought up as an argument years later when he's apologized several times for it. What is even more bothersome for me is how context is rarely given for the event.
+J4ck0f5p4d3s That is because people already dislike him and just want an excuse to not have to give an actual argument as to why he is "bad".
"I see dead movies."
I loved Signs actually...
"Every director has a movie that's not as good as the other ones, maybe their next one will be better"
*Show's Kubrick's last movie before he died*
That gave me a chuckle!
3:20 _Does that mean that there are, like, ghost ropes, and, like, ghost clothes?_
- Not to mention that they are hanging in a facility that was clearly built centuries after their death.
Hey! Jackie Brown is good. It just isn't as self-consciously "a Tarantino movie". It's more about the story -- the best Elmore Leonard adaptation.
Yeah, I think it's Tarantino's best film, also this guy is such a Plinkett wannabe
"M. Night Shyamalan..." *deep sigh*
Chris-Chan stress sigh at the beginning.
Love how you can hear Adam was basically trying to do a Plinkett voice back in these days hahaha.
Just discovered your videos hahaha love them. Love the Pure morning blasting! Ahahaha
Who's the guy raging about Signs? He's funny as hell
Stephan it's the amazing atheist he doesn't really do content like this and He's associated with some pretty scummy shit so yeaaaaaaah
That keyboard part was really accurate. I thought I was listening to him speak about his career.
Holy shit! Doug Walker totally stole TJ’s jokes!
The background music really makes these early yms videos
I love seeing TJ show up unexpectedly. Big fan.
I can't believe that my English teacher is getting us to watch THE VILLAGE!!! My whole class is being SHARMALISED! Help!

Did you say Jackie Brown was Tarantino's worst movie cause I find it to be the best!
Michael McLane the best? Like I can kind of relate because I like reservoir dogs a bit more than Pulp Fiction but I know Pulp Fiction is a better film
Danny Liken I think Jackie Brown is a masterpiece and is the only Tarantino film that reaches my top 10 favourite films of all time (6th Favourite Film of all time to be specific). Pulp Fiction comes second in my Tarantino ranking and 13th favourite film of all time. I too used to think Jackie Brown to be the worst until I realised that the reason that it is supposed to be so slow paced is because it is structured like a beautiful slow burn of dynamite which slowly builds up to an explosive climax. I dislike Pulp Fiction's non linear narrative that at times I feel disjoints me from the experience - especially after so many watches. However I do realise that it is all down to personal enjoyment and the positives of pulp fiction definitely outweigh the negatives. Pulp fiction is so iconic and I find it a shame that Jackie Brown is not but when it comes down to it for me, I think the story, structure, acting and direction of Jackie Brown is better. However I can definitely say that the dialogue in Pulp Fiction is tighter, more iconic and generally better than that of Jackie Brown as is the soundtrack.
Can someone tell me where the TURN ON THE LIGHT is from?
